Healthcare resilience
Healthcare resilience refers to the ability of healthcare systems—hospitals, clinics, and providers—to effectively prepare for, respond to, and recover from challenges such as disease outbreaks, natural disasters, or other emergencies. It involves having flexible resources, adaptable processes, and strong coordination to maintain essential services during crises. A resilient healthcare system ensures that patients continue to receive quality care despite disruptions, minimizing health impacts and restoring normal operations quickly. Essentially, it is about building robustness and adaptability to withstand shocks and continue functioning efficiently under pressure.
